Born in Bergamo in 2011 as an itinerant market, in 2015 the event took part in an urban redevelopment project.
It opens to the public a space abandoned for years, combining the values of sustainability and the promotion of artisan work, supporting the nascent handmade community in Italy and demonstrating that a historical place, now forgotten, can become the reference for a community.
Factory Market is today one of the most important events in Italy dedicated to handmade and independent producers, a craft fair where 100 artists, producers and designers, from all over Italy, meet to show, promote and sell their products, accompanied by a full program of workshops, conferences and experiences for the public.
Factory Market is an independent project, with the aim of giving visibility and support to small producers and promoting sustainable consumption.
